Over the last few weeks of 2014 and ongoing through January and February, we are liaising with Family History Groups all over the UK, asking Membership Secretaries to circulate a questionnaire about silhouette ownership. We hope that all of you belonging to Groups and owning silhouettes will participate in the survey, which is designed to allow us to calculate the prevalence of historic portrait silhouettes within a group of self-declared history enthusiasts. Many thanks in advance for your assistance.
